One is back in the playoffs and the favorite to go to the Super Bowl, still being led by their franchise QB. The other is in the toilet after a ridiculous season and, and their former franchise QB is in prison. As much as I want to smile about this memory, I find it hard to so these days.

Ja Soul Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 That's great and everything. Was a great win and a wonderful night. I was so proud of Vick and the Falcons......BUT it's 2008 and the Falcons are no better off now than they were that night and Green Bay is about to host the NFC Championship game...Thanks for the memories anyway :cool: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jigga Donkey Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 Vick led the Flacons with an enormous 120yrds passing, typical game for that clown. The Falcons won because the Packers threw-up all over themself turning the ball over 5 times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdweiserrr Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 In January 2008, Vick, led by Federal Marshals, entered the US Penitentiary at Leavenworth to serve out a 23 moth sentence on dog fighting related charges.Now back to our regularly scheduled discussions about the Atlanta Falcons.

Brutha Mike Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 Ya'll remember Finn's drop in the opener in GB that year? Why doesn't anyone have video of this? It makes some of Roddy's drops look like child's play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brutha Mike Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 Because it might be the single worst drop int he history of football. It would just be a nice keepsake. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think some people would rather see Mike Vick playing quarterback than see the Falcons win football games, including Arthur Blank. As long as Mr. Blank is 100% committed to winning with Michael Vick and only Michael Vick at quarterback the Falcons will suffer. Blank is willing to sacrifice the teams success for 3 years so he can bring his criminal quarterback back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

underpup Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 I remember that game. Duckett carried 3 packers into the endzone. Dan Reeves; now there is a good coach. He really got the shaft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodney Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 Brutha Mike (1/15/2008)Because it might be the single worst drop int he history of football. It would just be a nice keepsake. :PNah....The worse drop in history was by Tight End, Jackie Smith, playing for the Dallas Cowboys in the SuperBowl against the Pittsburg Steelers. It would have been the go ahead score in the 4th quarter. Roger Staubach scrambles and then tosses about a 12 yard pass to Smith in the endzone. The ball was slightly low, Smith went down on his knees to catch the ball. The ball hit him about belly level, and he dropped it. Nobody blamed Hall of Famer Jackie Smith. Staubach said that he possibly threw the ball too soft. Anyway....Cowboys lost by 4 if I remember correctly. That is the worse drop of all time. Everybody felt sorry for Smith. Smith came out of retirement to help the Cowboys. I was a huge Cowboy fan and I felt sorry for him also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
